  • Transformations of Trade Unionism Work Around the Globe: Historical Comparisons and Connections
    Transformations of Trade Unionism Work Around the Globe: Historical Comparisons and Connections Open Access Book Series of the International Institute of Social History (IISH) Most human beings work, and growing numbers are exposed to labour markets. These markets are increasingly globally competitive and cause both capital and labour to move around the world. In search of the cheapest labour, industries and service-based enterprises move from West to East and South, but also, for example, westwards from China’s east coast. People move from areas with few employment opportunities to urban and industrial hubs, both between and within continents. However, labour relations have been shifting already for centuries, labour migrations go back far in time, and changing labour relations cannot be comprehended without history. Therefore, understanding these developments and their consequences in the world of work and labour relations requires sound historical research, based on the experiences of diffferent groups of workers in diffferent parts of the world at diffferent moments in time, throughout human history. The research and publications department of the International Institute of Social History (IISH) has taken on a leading role in research and publishing on the global history of labour relations. In the context of Global Labour History, three central research questions have been defijined: (1) What labour relations have emerged in parallel with the rise and advance of market economies? (2) How can their incidence (and consequently the transition from one labour relation to another) be explained, and are these worldwide transitions interlinked? (3) What are the social, economic, political, and cultural consequences of their changing incidence, and how do they relate to forms of individual and collective agency among workers? These three questions are interconnected in time, but also in space.

  • Keynote Yanis Varoufakis What Am I Doing Here? a Political Economist and Politician. It Is Not Immediately Obvious Why I Am Spea
    1 of 7 Keynote Yanis Varoufakis What am I doing here? A political economist and politician. It is not immediately obvious why I am speaking at the Moscow Biennale for Contemporary Art 2015. Let me be more specific and self- critical about this: Economics is a very stale, uncultured discipline; students of economics are taught to think as if economic life can be fully described and understood independently from culture, art or music—somewhat like a military academy. As part of their officer training one of the things they learn is savoir-vivre, good manners. They come in handy if you are a general of the Russian, the French or the American army and your president invites you to dinner. You need to be able to know the right spoon, the right fork. But it is completely irrelevant for you doing your job properly at the battlefield. Manners are something good to have. They are additional to what is necessary in order to perform mass murder, which is what you do as a general. Similar to this, in the world of economics, culture is a good thing to have but it is completely inessential to understand how the economy works. Politicians look at culture as a venire, as a source of legitimacy. Culture serves a politician to become a minister of culture at one point in their career. It is not an essential ministry and very low down in the pecking order of the government. So if you have been a minister of finance or foreign affairs and afterwards you become the minister of culture it is considered a demotion.
